Making an Oar Leather & Button ASMR

This oar leather and button is for my 7' 6" oars for my Spindrift 10 dinghy. For the leather, I used Conceria Walpier 8oz veg-tanned leather. For the stitching, Maine Thread #40 waxed corded polyester. Polyester is well known for its UV resistance, and it's up to the task of a saltwater environment. The finished product is tapered and 11" in length. The warlocks should sit comfortably about 2" below the button.
